2Best Way to Experience It

Every ticket is a pit pass. Fans can watch crews rebuild the cars from five to 10 feet away, and drivers often sign autographs and pose for photos.
The pits are busiest in the first 30 minutes after a car comes back from a run. The Lucas Oil sportsman pits are often quieter for questions and autographs.
